In the United States, more than 795,000 people experience a stroke every year. Through the power of research and advocacy, the Florida Stroke Registry (FSR) continues fighting to prevent permanent disability or death from stroke while also doing the work to help improve access to timely care for patients across the state of Florida. As we close out National Stroke Awareness Month, we invite you to join us in this mission of saving lives by learning how to recognize the signs of a stroke and knowing the most effective next steps to take. View the video below, A Message From Your Florida Stroke Coalition: Identify a Stroke & Call 911 for an important message on the stroke awareness initiatives going on in your area and what you can do to take action against the threats of a stroke.
